This paper develops a beam association framework for mm Wave vehicular networks to improve the system performance in terms of handover, disconnection time, and data rate under the high mobility of vehicles. In particular, we recruit the semi Markov d... Read More about Optimal Beam Association in mmWave Vehicular Networks with Parallel Reinforcement Learning.

An ML Model for Predicting Information Check-Worthiness using a Variety of Features (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ullah, M. Z. (2020). An ML Model for Predicting Information Check-Worthiness using a Variety of Features. In Proceedings of the Workshop on Machine Learning for Trend and Weak Signal Detection in Social Networks and Social Media (56-61)

In this communication, we introduce the important problem of information check-worthiness. We present the method we developed to automatically answer this problem. This method makes use of an elaborated information representation that combines the “i... Read More about An ML Model for Predicting Information Check-Worthiness using a Variety of Features.

Exploiting various word embedding models for query expansion in microblog (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ahmed, S., Chy, A. N., & Ullah, M. Z. (2020). Exploiting various word embedding models for query expansion in microblog. In 2020 IEEE 8th R10 Humanitarian Technology Conference (R10-HTC). https://doi.org/10.1109/R10-HTC49770.2020.9357016

Microblogs, especially Twitter, make it easier to communicate with others in a real-time manner and is treated as a valuable information source. With the increasing amount of tweets, it would be fascinating to be able to extract essential information...

Exploring Susceptibility Measures to Persuasion (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Vargheese, J. P., Collinson, M., & Masthoff, J. (2020, April). Exploring Susceptibility Measures to Persuasion. Presented at 15th International Conference on Persuasive Technology, Aalborg, Denmark

There is increasing evidence that indicates how personalising persuasive strategies may increase the effectiveness of persuasive technologies and behaviour change interventions. This has led to a wide range of studies exploring self reported, perceiv... Read More about Exploring Susceptibility Measures to Persuasion.

Privacy Preserving Demand Forecasting to Encourage Consumer Acceptance of Smart Energy Meters (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Briggs, C., Fan, Z., & Andras, P. (2020). Privacy Preserving Demand Forecasting to Encourage Consumer Acceptance of Smart Energy Meters. In NeurIPS 2020 Workshop: Tackling Climate Change with Machine Learning

In this proposal paper we highlight the need for privacy preserving energy demand forecasting to allay a major concern consumers have about smart meter installations. High resolution smart meter data can expose many private aspects of a consumer’s ho... Read More about Privacy Preserving Demand Forecasting to Encourage Consumer Acceptance of Smart Energy Meters.
